Blood vessels rupture or occlusion in brain results in stroke. Stroke is the major reason for mortality and dysfunction worldwide. Despite several attempts, there are no any approved therapeutic approaches for stroke subjects. The most neuroprotective agents showed the positive effects in preclinical reports, while there are no significant therapeutic impacts in the clinical trials. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs which involved in the modulation of a variety of cellular and molecular pathways. Given that deregulation of these molecules is related to initiation and progression of stroke. Exosomes are nano‐carriers which are able to transfer different cargos such as miRNAs to recipient cells. Increasing evidence revealed that exosomal miRNAs are one of very important factors which are involved in the pathogenesis of stroke. Hence, more understanding about the role of exosomal miRNAs in stroke pathogenesis could contribute in discovering and developing new therapeutic approaches. Moreover, it has been proved the exosomal miRNAs could be used as noninvasive biomarkers in diagnosis and monitoring response to therapy in subjects with stroke. Herein for first time, we summarized different exosomal miRNAs involved in pathogenesis of stroke.
